Australia and West Indies meet one last time this summer in a T20I at the Gabba in Brisbane on Wednesday.

We’ll bring you the live coverage of the action throughout this game from 7.30pm AEDT (6:30pm local) tonight.

With most of the players on their way to India – or already in the country – for Australia’s four-Test tour, it is a partially depleted home team that will be on display against the world champions West Indies.

Unfortunately for the paying public, West Indies’ performances in the ODIs preceding this T20I hasn’t been anything to write home about and coupled with Aussie absentees, this could take the sheen off this game.

Australia have a bone to pick with the West Indies having lost to them in the World T20 semi-final last year. Having earlier beaten them in a rain-hit first round match, Australia capitulated in face of a huge chase, with only captain George Bailey (63) getting to more than 20.

The architects of that West Indian win were Chris Gayle and Ravi Rampaul. Gayle has been misfiring more recently and given his fitness woes he may miss this game. Rampaul isn’t even on tour.

The hosts had a new hero in the fifth ODI, Adam Voges, who carved out a maiden international century for himself. And then he promptly got injured and may miss this game. Joe Burns joins the side in his place.

Captain Bailey has had his own hamstring-related issues that caused him to miss a couple of ODIs but he could get fit in time for this. In the absence of Shane Watson and other senior men, if Bailey is rendered a non-starter, the onus of captaincy might fall on Brad Haddin.

Australia could afford a debut to Ben Rohrer while West Indies might use Tino Best’s aggro for the first time in this format of the game.

If Gayle does not make it to the line-up, it will be left to the other centurion from the fifth ODI, Johnson Charles to take up the lead at the top of the West Indian innings. Kieran Powell could step in at the top of the order.

Couple of things i noticed in the loss today. Marsh has to play faster then what he does as he always starts too slowly. Bailey’s supporters are talking him up yet his failure today was consistent with most of his failures this season, he got 1 century but we are making out like he is the next Bevan and he is not. I like what i see with Vogues and Faulkner bowled well under tough conditions today. Shame Haddin got out when he did.

That’s it from me, end of a long Australian summer, what with the South African Tests, Sri Lanka, West Indies and the Big Bash League. I will be back with Australia’s tour of India that has begins from February 22 with the first Test at Chennai. Ciao!

The hat-trick is missed and off the next delivery Bravo’s dropped a reasonably chance!

It was another slower one that was hit high into the air but without too much distance. Bravo was coming in from mid-wicket but fails to get his hands on it, misjudging it like how Finch had done in his drop.
